Personal information we collect:
When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device,
including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies
that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information
about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms
referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this
automatically collected information as “Device Information”.
We collect Device Information using the following technologies:
• “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an
anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable
cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
• “Log files” track actions occurring on the Site, and collect data including your IP address,
browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.
• “Web beacons”, “tags”, and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about
how you browse the Site.
We use Device Information for:
• Functionality: To recognize you on our website and recognize your previously selected
preferences, including your preferred language and your location.
• Advertising: To collect information about your visit, the content you viewed, the links you
followed, and information about your web browser, device, and IP address. We
sometimes share limited aspects of this data with third parties for advertising purposes.
You can set your browser not to accept cookies, and the website above tells you how to remove
cookies from your browser. Some of our website features may not function if you disable cookies.
Please note that we do not alter our Site’s data collection and use practices when we see a Do
Not Track signal from your browser.
We also collect data you provide to us directly. We refer to the data you provide as “Provided
Information.” We collect and process data you provide when you:
• Register online or place an order for any of our products or services
• Voluntarily complete a customer survey or provide feedback on any of our message
boards or via email
The Provided Information we collect may include:
• Personal identification information (name, email address, phone number, etc.)
• Billing information (billing address, shipping address, payment information, including
credit card numbers, etc.)
When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about
Device Information and Provided Information.
How we use your Personal Information:
We use the Provided Information that we collect generally to fulfill any orders placed through
the Site (including processing your payment information, delivering products, and providing you
with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, we use Provided Information to:
• Communicate with you;
• Screen our orders for potential risk or fraud; and
• When in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with
information or advertising relating to our products or services.
We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in
particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example,
by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to
assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
How we share your Personal Information:
We share your Personal Information with third parties to help us use your Personal
Information, as described above. For example, we use Google Analytics to help us
understand how our visitors use the Site - you can read more about how Google uses your
Personal Information here: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/. You can also
opt-out of Google Analytics here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
The types of third parties with whom we might share elements of your Personal Information
include:
• Payment processors engaged by us to securely store and handle payments information,
such as credit or debit card information
• Providers of email management and distribution tools
• Providers of security and fraud prevention tools and services,
• Providers of data aggregation and analytics software services that allow us to effectively
monitor and optimize our site
We may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations,
to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information we receive,
or to otherwise protect our rights.
How we store your data:
We use commercially reasonable security measures to protect against unauthorized access to
or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of information stored on our servers. Of
course, no computer network or data transmission on the internet can be guaranteed to be
100% secure and so you submit your information at your own risk.

delete this information.
